What is status?

How do you earn status points and what are they good for?

Jun-22-2004 08:48

Little Nell, are you talking about the "Subscription Status" found at the top of the detective page?

If so, here are the answers to your questions:

Qn 1: Status indicates whether you paid US$4 to have access to 8 cases a day, instead of just 3.

There are only 2 statuses: Subscribed/Unsubscribed.

Anyone who starts the game without paying gets an "Unsubscribed" status.

Qn 2: You can earn status points by paying the US$4 subscription fee. As mentioned, this allows you to tackle a maximum of 8 cases instead of 3.

If you're asking about something else, I'm sorry I misintepreted your questions! Please specify further, if that is indeed the case, and I'm sure someone will gladly help. Happy Sleuthing!

Actually, I had the same question, at least in reference to the Status Points gained through Agency Headquarters. You see, my friend and I just started the Black Travellers and we're trying to decide on a future headquarters to aim for.

me, too - I'd like to know about what real estate status points mean. do they affect fame?

They don't affect fame, but I think it might give you some extra points in your favour when the dice is rolled as to unclamming an uncooperative suspect :)

Headquarters status is a slight adjustment that agency members get to attempting Toughness and Charm tests. Having a headquarters with a status of 2 is approximately equivalent to having an extra piece of equipment with +1T and +1C.
